What is strategy?
Strategic decisions are likely to…
• Be complex in nature
• Be made in situations of uncertainty
• Affect daily decisions
• Require an integrated approach (thus inside & outside an organisation)
• Involve considerable change
Defining strategy
• The long term direction of the organisation
o 3 horizons
▪ Horizon 1 (short term): extend and defend core business
▪ Horizon 2: build emerging businesses
▪ Horizon 3: (long term): create viable options
o Follow objectives or an emerging coherent pattern
o Firms as discrete entities or relates internal and external persons and groups
What is strategy for?
• To define and express the motivating purpose of an organization to stakeholders
• Four ways to define an organisation’s purpose:
o Mission statement
▪ To provide employees and stakeholders with clarity about what the
organisation is fundamentally there to do
• What would be lost if the organisation did not exist? (why)
• What business are we in? (what)
• How do we make a difference?
o Vision statement
▪ Is concerned with the future the organisation seeks to create.
▪ Desired future state of the organization. What do we want to achieve?
o Statement of corporate values
▪ The underlying and enduring core ‘principles’ that guide an organisation’s
strategy and define the way that the organisation should operate
▪ Values do not change with circumstances
o Statement of objectives
▪ Statements of specific outcomes that are to be achieved
▪ Often financial, market-based, competitive advantage, triple bottom limed
,Strategy statements – three main themes
• The fundamental goals (mission, vision, objectives) of the organisation
• The scope or domain of the organisation’s activities
o Scope: domain of the organisation’s activities
▪ Refers to three dimensions:
• Customers: who?
• Geographical location: where?
• Extend of internal activities: how much ourselves?
o Vertical integration / specialisation
• The particular advantages or competitive superiority
o Advantage: how the organisation will achieve the objectives set regarding its chosen
scope
▪ Commercial → competitive advantage
Ideally strategy statements in max 35 words.
